Unique Gift Baskets For Bundles of Joy

Bar-B-Q Gift Baskets ~ Make It For Dad!

Bar-B-Q gift baskets are a great way to show the dad in your life how much you love him! These type of unique gift baskets would even be great for the new dad who is settling down into the "family life" after the birth of his first child! Maybe this gift is for your son or son-in-law and you know he's getting a new beautiful gas grill for a Father's Day gift. One of these unique Bar-B-Q gift baskets would be a great complimentary gift for that occasion!

You can do it yourself! Take a look at these directions on how to make unique gift baskets, and modify them to your taste. Items to purchase before beginning:

A medium sized basket with at least 12 inches in the bottom of the basket.
BBQ Sauce
BBQ Marinade
BBQ Utensils
Oven Mitts (make 'em look manly!)
Grilling Apron (again, make it manly!)
Platter - if you can't find something unique and manly, at least make it a solid green or blue color
If your BBQ guy is a beer drinker, a six pack (bottles) of his favorite beer
Red & White checked tablecloth (material, not plastic)
18 inches of thick rope
Shredded white paper or tissue paper

To Assemble

Lay out the red and white checked table cloth on a clean surface, place the basket in the center of the table cloth.
Place shredded paper or crumpled tissue paper in the bottom of the basket.
If you've purchased a platter, place it in the back of the basket.
Arrange the rest of your purchases in the basket in an artful manor - largest items toward the back, smaller items toward the front.
If you've purchased beer or any other breakable bottles, make sure to place the bottles in the basket away from the platter and don't let them touch each other. It would be a shame for the bottles to break during transport and ruin your great gift.

Take your thick rope and tie single knots in each end.
(For this part, you'll need a second pair of hands.) Gather the table cloth up around the basket. Tie the rope around the top of the table cloth, similar to how you would tie ribbon at the top of cellophane.
Since this is a "guy" basket, make a simple double knot, or, if you know how to make special knots, do that now.

Personalize Gift Basket - Tips

To personalize this gift in a very special way, go to your local ceramic shop with your baby or children. Select a large platter and let the kids decorate it. If you have a newborn, baby or toddler, tiny feet and hand prints will be cherished for a life time! Your ceramic shop will fire the platter after you've painted it. This is a very special addition to your Bar-B-Que gift.

Ta, da! You've done it! You've made one of the most unique gift baskets for the dad in your life! If you decide you'll pass on making the bar-b-que gift baskets, you may want to check out other gift basket ideas for dad!
